Jan. 7, 2017 Red-Tailed Hawk Just hanging out Doing heel raises And he is off to the wild blue yonder

Week #1 "Standing out in a crowd" No crowds around here. This was the best I could do to find a crowd to stand out in. Ha!

Jan. 6 The Sparrows saved me today. I have carried the 200-500mm lens for the last two days hoping to get a shot of the Kestrel that has been hanging around without having to crop the heck out of it. Today lugging that heavy lens around, all I saw was some sparrows in a dreary atmosphere. Blah.

***Bright Colors*** CONGRATULATIONS TO THE TOP FIVE! Thanks to all who participated in this monthly challenge. Participation was great for this month and there were many GREAT photos that illustrated the theme in a wide variety of ways. It was a very close...

Jan. 5 Northern Flicker

Congratulations @Marilynne With all of the money they paid you, you should now be able to make it to the Meet and Greet in Feb. :cheerful:

This sparrow didn't look like much until I converted it to B&W. Salvaged, I think. Ha!

Jan. 4 Continued Red-tailed Hawk coming in for a landing

Jan. 4, 2017 American Wigeon

What others have said and my opinion was the same as Jake's. @BackdoorHippie I have the II (I bought used from Robert's Camera) and in the limited use I have put it to it does fine with the lenses and cameras I own.

So glad you got it sorted out, @musomaniac . Sometimes in frustration we miss the details of what is in front of us. You now can play. Hooray!!

@wev I sure am glad you are having problems uploading images. It gives me a chance to stay caught up with my Smoke Signal Internet service. :rolleyes:

Jan. 3 Continued A plane American Kestrel that just keeps hanging around the same power pole. He was flying around and I thought I had missed him. Then on the return trip around the place he had landed in one of his usual spots. One shot and he was gone. At least he let me get one.

Jan 3, 2017 A couple of crows

I have been very lazy when it comes to cataloging my photos (I know the rest of you are too at times, so don't look so innocent. Ha!) Anyway, I recently picked up PSE15 and thought that it might be a good time for some "serious" cataloging attempts. My question is, for those who may have also...

Jan. 2 Continued Sunset shots from tonight. And here I thought I wouldn't have another chance for a Dusk shot for the weekly challenge. Oh well. Ha!

Jan. 2, 2017 Before I post anything about today, let me clear up yesterdays photo. It was not a Sundog as near as I can determine it was the birth of a rainbow. Ha! Now back to the daily photo posting. I didn't feel like getting out today, so I played with the OCF. I don't know if I will...

With only one more Dusk and one more Dawn before this week is done, I thought I had better use what I have. Ha!
